- a character is MASH ("pathetic trans" archetype, whereas this character has no chance to "pass". Also this character is effectively a man in a dress, reinforcing that popular narrative.


I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to correct you on this.
Klinger wasn't trying to be trans. He wanted out of the war so he was trying to get a section 8 (psychiatric discharge). The cross-dressing was just one of many attempts in trying to get one.

He actively refused a discharge because said discharge would've labeled him as a transvestite and a homosexual, which he balks against.

And as the seasons go on, he eventually stops cross-dressing, especially after taking over Radar's job as company clerk.
